Help!!! Army Combat Medic to DDS

[denticodia]

I'm drafting my statement of purpose to apply to the DDS program. Have served as a combat medic in Army for 4 yrs, and graduated from dental college in India. Currently working as a dental assistant. I'm having a hard time figuring out what relevant medic experience should I mention which will portray me as a better candidate for the program. Will appreciate any feedback. TIA

You, my friend, have real world experience working, with people that trumps all others!
Do you have any commendations? If so list them!
Did you enjoy working with the troops? If so say so and say why.
Did you get selected for special duties or special training? Is so say so and explain.

DO NOT underestimate your Army experience as a Combat Medic!
